Something to keep an eye out for this week as practice takes place

@KBowenColts: No Samson Satele or Jeff Linkenbach at practice today. Official injury report coming later.

@CraigKColts: Players not observed at media portion of work today had two OL - Satele, Linkenbach.

Is it possible for Holmes to play C come Sunday and keep Mike McGlynn at G?

In other injury news:

@TribStarTJames: Toler, Conner in full pads today at practice.

If these 2 o-line guys not playing is the only injury concern for this week I will very happy. Also Toler practiced in full today so I would say if he practices full tomorrow and shows that there was no setbacks then he will finally play on Sun.

Will my line of choice come to fruition soon...been calling for it for a couple of months....

Castonzo, Reitz, McGlynn, Thornton(Link) and Cherilus????

Some said it would never happen....I hope it does...

That's what I'm thinking, along w hopefully starting Da'Rick. Perhaps we may see the O look better than it has since the Den game???? That's TBD.

Reitz is so much bigger and stronger than last year and before....I was amazed he was not in there to be honest.  He looked 'respectable' filling in for AC at LT....getting them in unison on the left side could be huge....!!!

 Mcglynn is an upgrade over Satele but he's still a liability in pass protection. Hopefully Thornton statrs at RG and Reitz LG but i wanna see Holmes start at C. How do we know what we have in Holmes if the coaches won't even give him a chance to prove himself. Imo i think Holmes will be an upgrade over both Mcglynn and Satele.

Sometimes the coaching decisions confuse me but they would obviously know more than I do. Wonder if Reitz was just injured off & on this year. Looking forward to seeing if the line just even remotely improves this weekend.

Going to be a tough task for them.

Good point as always Malakai!!  

 

With Reitz being off and on injured the last 2 years, maybe they were limiting his reps?

 

I can tell you one thing....as I have said before...I was getting tired of his number being called for the 'Jumbo Package'  Time to get some reps and get cohesive before the playoffs!!! :coltslogo:  :coltslogo:  :coltslogo: !!!

The good news for Toler is that we are going to play with the roof shut guaranteeing 70 degrees...he can ride the bike on the sidelines to stay loose.

 

I hoe he plays....but not if it means the groin will pop again and he is done....fine line.  I would err on the side of safety if ther is ANY question!! :coltshelmet:  :coltshelmet: !!

For sure. I at least want to get him to get back out there for the Jacksonville game though so that his first game back isn't in the playoffs. Once again not at the expense of him messin his groin up more and not being in the playoffs but I would really really like to see him come back for at least 1 game at the end and knock some of the rust off.

I want to see them give Holmes a shot at C, but would that mean Reitz would sit? I think Reitz is our best guard, but I'm worried if they put Holmes at C it would be Thorton and McGlynn at left and right guard.

 

I really want to see Castonzo, Reitz, Holmes, Thornton and Cherilus ... I think that would be the best line up we have, and if Holmes struggles they could just throw McGlynn in there, anyone but Satele.

      How to Beat the Texans (and every other team)

      I wasn’t being serious.  That’s why I included the smiley face at the end.

      Ballard has been saying it for years that the trenches are where it’s at. Doesn’t matter what era of football has been around, you control the line of scrimmage and you control the game. He has accomplished it on the O side of the ball but has tried for years to get a DL that can do the same. I think we will see it come together this year and into the next two.

      Harrison Played Mostly At Safety In Mini Camp.

      By AwesomeAustin · Posted

      Harrison, Cross, Blackmon and Thomas is not a terrible group. Someone obviously needs to step up and play beside Blackmon at his level. I think there is enough ability with those four to roll with them into training camp and see what happens.

      Pass rush.     That is the key.  Control the line.  Make him make plays.  Make him uncomfortable.  Hey, if he Stroud beats us with his talent and we’re making him complete these great plays, then chalk it up to the game.  But we can’t allow him (and any other qb) to be comfortable and pick us apart.     I hope we see our front 4 provide that pressure because that will make everything else much easier.  I honestly believe we have the corners for our scheme in Moore, Brents, and jones.  But we don’t have the pressure.  Or the FS unfortunately.  Our corners jobs in this scheme isn’t to run step for step with wide receivers.  It’s to stick with them and prevent YAC.  Moore is the best nickel in the game, Jones was one of the best corners PERIOD in preventing YAC, and I think a healthy Brents will be good too.

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      By smittywerb · Posted

      Agreed.  After this last off season, I kind of give Ballard a pass on taking long to find a certified DE (if Latu pans out).  Like QBs, they don’t grow on trees.  You either have to draft one high, get lucky with one in the draft, or sign one in FA for loads of cash.  All I can ask for him as GM to do is try.  He hasn’t been perfect by any means but at least he’s tried with the DE position specifically.   i also think Shane being here has changed his thinking.  Before, Ballard might’ve went with Turner due to the higher upside.  But maybe Shane differs and wants proven players.     Either way, I’m glad we possibly have our stud at a premium position for the next 5 years at a cheap rate.     And gotta thank the Falcons for us landing Latu.  Lol
